Term: IN FORO CONTENTIOSO

Term: IN FORO ECCLESIASTICO

Definition: In foro ecclesiastico means in an ecclesiastical court.

A more thorough explanation:

In foro contentioso is a Latin term that means "in the forum of contention or litigation." It refers to a legal action that has been contested in court, and the parties involved have been fully heard on the merits of the case.

For example, if a person sues another person for breach of contract, and the case goes to trial, the decision made by the judge or jury would be considered a decree in in foro contentioso because the parties were fully heard in court.

It is important to note that a decree can still be considered in foro contentioso even if the parties were not fully heard. However, the decision may not be as strong or reliable as one where the parties were fully heard.

John and Jane are in a legal dispute over a property line. They both present their arguments in court, and the judge makes a decision based on the evidence presented. This decision is considered a decree in in foro contentioso because the case was fully litigated in court.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalgona I just learned about these things. Apparently they’re featured in Squid Game, but I think Squid Game is just a ripoff of the original Mr Beast Games
I learned today the term fight fire with fire comes from the early day of fire fighting when departments would just bulldoze buildings and then burn them in an attempt to stop a fire from spreading. So to stop fire from burning shit they would burn down other buildings in a more violent and destructive way thus lowering the fires moral so much it refuses to spread and work.

that's like basically how wildland firefighting still works
I did wildland and most of the time it was controlled burns but it is pretty funny to imagine doing that in a city/neighborhood.
Dkk

The Santa Ana winds kinda helped with that because it pushed the fire back to where it had already burned despite the news media saying everything was going to get worse like the idiots they are.
Cant imagine being the guy to be like "hey so to keep your neighbors house from burning down we are going to bulldoze yours and then catch it on fire"
